If your neighbor was constantly showing you gadgets he bought and constantly pointing out that it was all very expensive, would you be impressed or think he was a materialistic show-offing fool?
Bud Dink was a nice guy and he didn't mean any harm but nonetheless he was a bit of a d-bag.
Not so much a D-bag, but a bit showoff-ish.
shareI took Mr. Dink as a parody of people who get ripped off all the time. He was constantly saying the stuff was "very expensive" but the stuff always ended up being pieces of junk.
shareI thought it was funny how his wife was always upset that he bought those things.
shareHe never really came off as doing it to shove it in Doug or his families face. He often offered to let Doug use his stuff.
Mr. Dink was a satire right from his name -DINK- Dual income, no kids. So he has plenty of money to buy ridiculous stuff and Mrs. Dink runs for mayor.
